Vissel Kobe will welcome Ulsan Hyundai to the Misaki Park Stadium in the group stage of the AFC Champions League Elite on Wednesday. While both teams have won two of their three games in the competition thus far, the visitors are at the top of the standings and have a one-point lead over Kobe.
The hosts have seen a drop in form recently and are winless in their last four games across all competitions. They met Albirex Niigata in the J1 League last month and were held to a 2-2 draw. Yuya Osako's brace gave them a two-goal lead, but they conceded twice in the second half to give away their advantage.
Ulsan saw their unbeaten streak end after three games last week as they suffered a 3-1 away loss to Anyang in the K League 1. They are unbeaten in their three games in the Champions League thus far and overcame Sanfrecce Hiroshima 1-0 last month.
